About Us
More Than an Equipment Rental Company
Sound and Video Rentals has provided professional audio, video, entertainment, and event-production solutions throughout the San Francisco Bay Area for more than two decades. What began with entertainment entertainment and sound reinforcement has grown into a full-service audiovisual rental and production company serving corporate meetings, conferences, weddings, private events, schools, hotels, venues, nonprofit organizations, and production professionals.
We start by understanding what you want to accomplish, then recommend the right equipment and level of support. You receive dependable gear and straightforward service—without paying for an oversized production package you do not need.
The Right Level of Support
DIY Convenience or Complete Onsite Service
Clients comfortable operating equipment can choose professional-quality DIY rentals. Events needing more support can add delivery, installation, testing, technicians, operation, breakdown, and pickup. Whether you need one microphone and two speakers or support for a multi-day corporate event, our goal is the same: an AV setup that works when you need it.

Experienced Support
Prepared for the Details That Make Events Work
Years of onsite work have given us practical experience with microphone placement, speaker coverage, projection, power requirements, cable management, load-in logistics, setup schedules, and last-minute changes.
We use professional equipment from trusted audiovisual and entertainment brands, including QSC, Shure, Epson, RANE, Yamaha, Electro-Voice, Blackmagic Design, LD Systems, and others.
Our Philosophy
Provide the right equipment. Show up prepared. Do the job correctly. Take care of the customer.
Good AV service starts with communication: understanding the event, identifying potential problems early, providing clear pricing, and making sure every client knows exactly what is being provided.
